< Maka 10 >

1 Na ka whakatika ia i reira, haere ana ki nga wahi o Huria ki tera taha o Horano: na ka huihui mai ano nga mano ki a ia; ka whakaako ano ia i a ratou, ko tana tikanga hoki tera.
Then He set out from there and came into the borders of Judea, by way of the other side of the Jordan. Again, crowds gathered to Him, and as was His custom, He began to teach them once more.
2 Na ka haere mai nga Parihi, ka ui ki a ia, He mea tika ranei kia whakarere te tangata i tana wahine? he whakamatautau hoki mona.
Then some Pharisees approached to test Him and asked Him, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce a wife?”
3 Na ka whakahoki ia, ka mea ki a ratou, he aha ta Mohi i mea ai ki a koutou?
So in answer He said to them, “What did Moses command you?”
4 Ka ki ratou, I tukua e Mohi kia tuhituhia he pukapuka whakarere, ka whakarere ai.
They said, “Moses permitted one to write a certificate of divorce and to put away.”
5 Na ka whakahoki a Ihu, ka mea ki a ratou, Na te pakeke o o koutou ngakau i tuhituhia ai e ia tenei kupu ako ki a koutou.
Jesus answered and said to them: “It was due to your hardness of heart that he wrote you this precept.
6 I te orokohanganga ia, i hanga raua e te Atua he tane, he wahine.
But from the beginning of creation, God made them a male and a female.
7 Mo konei ka mahue i te tangata tona papa me tona whaea, ka piri ki tana wahine;
‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife,
8 Hei kikokiko kotahi hoki raua tokorua: na heoi ano to raua tokoruatanga, engari kotahi ano kikokiko.
and the two will be turned into one flesh.’ So then, they are no longer two but one flesh.
9 Na, ko a te Atua i hono ai, kaua e wehea e te tangata.
Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate.”
10 A i te whare ka ui ano ana akonga ki a ia ki taua mea.
When they were in the house again, His disciples asked Him about the same subject.
11 Ka mea ia ki a ratou, Ki te whakarere tetahi i tana wahine, a ka marena i tetahi atu, e puremu ana ia, e hara ana ki tera.
So He said to them, “Whoever divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery against her;
12 Ki te whakarere hoki te wahine i tana tane, a ka marenatia ki tetahi atu, e puremu ana ia.
and if a woman divorces her husband and gets married to another, she commits adultery.”
13 Na ka kawea mai ki a ia etahi tamariki nonohi, kia pa ai ia ki a ratou: otira ka riria e nga akonga te hunga nana i kawe mai.
People started bringing little children to Him, that He might touch them; so the disciples started rebuking those doing the bringing.
14 No te kitenga ia o Ihu, ka riri, ka mea ki a ratou, Tukua nga tamariki nohohi kia haere mai ki ahau, kaua hoki ratou e araia atu: no nga penei hoki te rangatiratanga o te Atua.
But when Jesus saw it He was indignant and said to them: “Let the little children come to me; do not hinder them, because the Kingdom of God is made up of such.
15 He pono taku e mea nei ki a koutou, Ki te kahore e rite te tango a tetahi i te rangatiratanga o te Atua ki ta te tamaiti nohinohi, e kore ia e tomo ki roto.
I tell you assuredly, whoever does not receive the Kingdom of God like a little child does will certainly not enter it.”
16 Na okookona ana ratou e ia, whakapakia iho ona ringa ki a ratou, manaakitia ana ratou.
And taking them in His arms and laying His hands on them, He blessed them.
17 Na, i a ia e haere ana i te huarahi, ka oma mai tetahi, ka tuku iho i nga turi ki a ia, ka ui, E te Kaiwhakaako pai, me aha ahau ka whiwhi ai ki te ora tonu? (aiōnios g166)
As Jesus set out on the road, someone came running up, knelt before Him and asked Him, “Good Teacher, what must I do that I may inherit eternal life?” (aiōnios g166)
18 Na ka mea a Ihu ki a ia, He aha ahau i kiia ai e koe he pai? kahore tetahi i pai, kotahi anake, ko te Atua.
So Jesus said to Him: “Why do you call me ‘good’? No one is good except one—God.
19 E matau ana koe ki nga ture, Kaua e puremu, Kaua e patu tangata, Kaua e tahae, Kaua e whakapae teka, Kaua e kaia, Whakahonoretia tou papa me tou whaea.
You know the commandments: ‘Do not commit adultery,’ ‘Do not murder,’ ‘Do not steal,’ ‘Do not give false testimony,’ ‘Do not defraud,’ ‘Honor your father and mother.’”
20 Na ka whakahoki tera, ka mea ki a ia, E te Kaiwhakaako, kua rite katoa enei mea i ahau no toku tamarikitanga ake.
In answer he said to Him, “Teacher, I have kept all these since I was young.”
21 Na ka titiro a Ihu ki a ia, ka aroha ki a ia, ka mea ki a ia, Kotahi te mea kahore nei i a koe: haere, hokona au mea, ka hoatu ki nga rawakore, a e whai taonga koe ki te rangi: katahi ka haere mai, ka aru i ahau.
Then Jesus, looking at him, loved him, and said to him: “One thing you lack; go, sell whatever you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, take up the cross, and follow me.”
22 Otira ka tuku tona mata i taua kupu, a haere pouri atu ana: he maha hoki ona taonga.
But he was dismayed at the suggestion and went away sorrowing, because he had many possessions.
23 Na ka tirotiro a Ihu, ka mea ki ana akonga, Ano te whakauaua o te tapoko o te hunga taonga ki te rangatiratanga o te Atua!
Then Jesus looked around and said to His disciples, “How hard it is for those who have riches to get into the Kingdom of God!”
24 Na ka miharo nga akonga ki ana kupu. Otira ka whakahoki ano a Ihu, ka mea ki a ratou, E tama ma, ano te whakauaua o te tapoko ki to te Atua rangatiratanga o te hunga e whakawhirinaki ana ki nga taonga!
But the disciples were astounded at His words. So Jesus tried again and said to them: “Children, how hard it is for those who trust in riches to enter the Kingdom of God.
25 Erangi te haere o te kamera ra te kowhao o te ngira he mea takoto noa, he whakauaua rawa ia te haere o te tangata taonga ki roto ki te rangatiratanga o te Atua.
It is actually easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of God.”
26 Na rahi rawa to ratou miharo, ka mea ki a ratou ano, Ko wai ra e ora?
Then they were totally astonished, saying to each other, “Who then can be saved?”
27 Na ka titiro a Ihu ki a ratou, ka mea, E kore tenei e taea e te tangata, ki te Atua ia ka taea: e taea hoki nga mea katoa e te Atua.
But Jesus looked at them and said, “With men it is impossible, but not with God; because all things are possible with God.”
28 Katahi ka anga a Pita ka mea ki a ia, Na kua mahue nei i a matou nga mea katoa, kua aru nei i a koe.
Then Peter began to say to Him, “So, we have left all and followed you.”
29 Na ka whakahoki a Ihu, ka mea, He pono taku e mea nei ki a koutou, Ki te whakarerea e tetahi tangata, he whare, he teina, he tuahine, he whaea, he papa, he tamariki, he mara, he whakaaro nona ki ahau, ki te rongopai hoki,
In answer Jesus said: “I tell you assuredly, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or fields, for my sake and for that of the Gospel,
30 Ina, tataki rau nga mea e riro i a ia, i tenei wa, he whare, he teina, he tuahine, he whaea, he tamariki, he mara, me te whakatoi; a, i te ao meake puta, he ora tonu. (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
who will not receive a hundred times more, now in this time—houses and brothers and sisters and father and mother and children and fields (with persecutions)—and in the age to come, eternal life. (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
31 He tokomaha ia o mua e waiho ki muri; ko o muri hoki ki mua.
But many first will be last, and last first.”
32 Na i te huarahi ratou e haere ana ki Hiruharama; me te haere ano a Ihu i mua i a ratou: na e miharo ana ratou; e aru mataku ana. Heoi ka mau ano ia i te tekau ma rua, ka anga ka korero ki a ratou i nga mea meake pa ki a ia.
Now they were on the road going up to Jerusalem, and Jesus was going ahead of them; this surprised them, and as they followed they started to be afraid. Then He took the twelve aside again and began to tell them the things that were about to happen to Him:
33 Nana, e haere ana tenei tatou ki Hiruharama; a ka tukua te Tama a te tangata ki nga tohunga nui, ki nga karaipi; ka kiia e ratou kia mate, ka tuku hoki ratou i a ia ki nga tauiwi:
“Take note, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of the Man will be betrayed to the chief priests and the scribes; and they will condemn Him to death and deliver Him over to the Gentiles;
34 Ka tawaia ia, ka tuwhaina, ka whiua, ka whakamatea, a i te toru o nga ra ka ara.
and they will mock Him, and scourge Him, and spit on Him, and kill Him. And on the third day He will rise again.”
35 Na ka whakatata mai ki a ia a Hemi raua ko Hoani, nga tama a Heperi, ka mea, E te Kaiwhakaako, e hiahia ana maua kia meatia e koe ta maua e inoi ai.
Then James and John, the sons of Zebedee, approached Him and said, “Teacher, we want you to do for us whatever we may ask.”
36 Na ka mea ia ki a raua, He aha ta korua e hiahia ai kia meatia e ahau ma korua?
So He said to them, “What do you want me to do for you?”
37 Ka mea raua ki a ia, Tukua ki a maua kia noho, tetahi ki tou matau, tetahi ki tou maui, i tou kororia.
They said to Him, “Grant to us that we may sit, one at your right and one at your left, in your glory.”
38 Na ko te meatanga a Ihu ki a raua, Kahore korua e matau ki ta korua e inoi nei; e ahei ranei korua te inu i te kapu ka inumia nei e ahau? kia iriiria ki te iriiringa ka iriiria nei ahau?
But Jesus said to them: “You do not know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I drink, and to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?”
39 Ka mea raua ki a ia, E ahei ano. Ka ki atu a Ihu ki a raua, E inu ano korua i te kapu ka inumia e ahau; e iriiria korua ki te iriiringa e iriiria ai ahau:
They said to Him, “We are able.” So Jesus said to them: “You will indeed drink the cup that I drink, and you will be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with;
40 Tena ko te noho ki toku matau, ki toku maui ranei, ehara i te mea maku e hoatu, engari ka riro i te hunga i whakaritea nei mo ratou.
but to sit at my right and at my left is not mine to grant, but is for whom it has been prepared.”
41 A, no te rongonga o te tekau, ka anga ka riri ki a Hemi raua ko Hoani.
Well when the ten heard it they began to be indignant with James and John.
42 Na karangatia ana ratou e Ihu ki a ia, ka mea ki a ratou, E mahara ana koutou, ko te hunga e kiia ana he kawana no nga tauiwi hei whakatupu rangatira ki a ratou; ko o ratou tangata rarahi hoki hei akiaki i a ratou.
But Jesus summoned them and said to them: “You know that those who are regarded as rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them.
43 Otira e kore e pera i roto i a koutou: engari ki te mea tetahi kia whakatupu tangata rahi i roto i a koutou, me whakatupu kaimahi ia ma koutou:
But it must not be so among you, but whoever desires to become great among you must be your servant,
44 Ki te mea hoki tetahi o koutou kia whakatupu tino tangata, me whakatupu pononga ia ma te katoa.
and whoever desires to be your number one must be slave of all.
45 Kihai nei hoki te Tama a te tangata i haere mai kia mahia he mea mana, engari kia mahi ia, kia tuku hoki i a ia kia mate hei utu mo nga tangata tokomaha.
For even the Son of the Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many.”
46 Na ka tae ratou ki Heriko: a, i a ia e haere atu ana i roto i Heriko, ratou ko ana akonga me te mano tini, e noho ana a paratimiuha, tama a Timiuha, he matapo, i te taha o te ara, ki te tono mea mana.
They came to Jericho. Then as He was going out from Jericho, with His disciples and a large crowd, the blind Bartimaeus (son of Timaeus) was sitting by the roadside begging.
47 A, i tona rongonga ko Ihu o Nahareta tena, ka anga ia ka karanga, ka mea, E ihu, e te Tama a Rawiri, kia aroha ki ahau.
And when he heard that it was Jesus the Natsorean, he began to call out and say, “O Son of David, Jesus, have mercy on me!”
48 A he tokomaha ki te riri i a ia kia noho puku, heoi tino rahi ake tana karanga, E te Tama a Rawiri, kia aroha ki ahau.
Many started telling him to shut up, but he started calling out even louder, “Son of David, have mercy on me!”
49 Na ka tu a Ihu, ka mea kia karangatia ia. A karangatia ana e ratou te matapo, ka mea ki a ia, Kia maia, whakatika; e karanga ana ia ki a koe.
So Jesus stood still and said to call him. Then they called the blind man, saying to him: “Courage! Get up! He's calling you!”
50 Na ka whakarerea e ia tona kakahu, a whakatika ana, haere ana ki a Ihu.
Tossing off his cloak, he got up and went to Jesus.
51 Na ka oho a Ihu, ka mea ki a ia, He aha tau e hiahia na kia meatia e ahau mau? Ka ki te matapo ki a ia, E te Ariki, kia titiro ahau.
Jesus reacted by saying to him, “What do you want me to do for you?” The blind man said to Him, “Rabouni, that I may see again!”
52 Ka mea a Ihu ki a ia, Haere: na tou whakapono koe i ora ai. Na titiro tonu iho ia, aru ana i a Ihu i te ara.
So Jesus said to him, “Go; your faith has healed you.” And immediately he could see, and followed Jesus on the road.
